CORIMA S.A. was founded in 1973 by Mr Pierre MARTIN and Mr Jean-Marie RIFFARD, and is situated in Loriol sur Drôme (26) in France. The word CORIMA is taken from COoperation RIffard MArtin. Its initial activities were mechanical moulding: the making of moulds and models for the foundry, automobile and aeronautics sectors.
In 1988, CORIMA diversified into the production of carbon composite parts and launched its first product for the cycling sector: the DISC WHEEL. This was followed by the 4-SPOKE wheel, the PUMA monocoque frame, the AERO wheel, the ELLIPSE seatpost and many others to create a full range of carbon products for cycling. Two world hour records have been broken on CORIMA bikes: Chris Boardman in July 1993 and Catherine Marsal in April 1995.
CORIMA makes 80% of its sales from exports through distributors worldwide and the virtual store on this website in countries where CORIMA is not represented.
CORIMA has grown with a new building of 1200 m2 of space dedicated to the sales department and research and development. A brand new showroom was created to improve reception facilities and display our product range.
CORIMA congratulates and thanks all the athletes who ride with Corima products, road and track cyclists, cyclo-cross riders, triathletes and athletes in wheelchair sports.
The new premises are on the existing site close to the LORIOL exit n°16 on the A7 highway. |
